Hi all,

I'm hoping someone can help me solve a big problem that I am having with Lycos.

For some reason my rankings have deteriorated in Lycos whilst remaining high in FAST/All The Web. These rankings were top 10 for three specific keyphrases and now they're not in the Top 100.

The confusing part is that for these keyphrases I still rank in the Top 10 in FAST/All The Web.

I was under the assumption that Lycos primarily uses FAST and the ODP for web site results? Whilst my ranking in the ODP is only ranking about 50 for the main keyphrase it ranks number 2 in FAST.

Is it possible that I have been banned for some reason in Lycos?

Can anyone offer an explanation for this?
Any help would be much appreciated.
thanks in advance.
